When I turn it on, the screen looks good and I can see
it going through its
paces. It complains that there is no keyboard. I have no idea how much one
would cost, but I expect it's >$50.
I do not know how to tell if has been "upgraded" to a Mac/XL or if it is
original.
What's a good price for most of a Lisa?
Too much.
I've got a box of parts, from a Widget HD to RAM cards and maybe even
a CPU card; two printer cards, etc. Just can't find the "handyman's
special" I've been looking for...

Are keyboards findable? 3.5" 400K disk images with Lisa software? I
suspect that a Mac 128K/512K mouse would work (nine-pin, raw quadrature),
but keyboards are particular beasts. Anyone ever rig up a PIC scan-code
converter?
I realize that I will probably never see a complete Lisa system with software,
docs and a printer go for $25, but is a base unit with a working monitor
and CPU worth $50? $100? More?
